When you’re fabricating brackets, repairing equipment, or marking metal for drilling, you need clean, precise starting points. A good center punch makes all the difference between a drill bit that walks across the metal and one that bites right where you want it. This professional-grade punch gives you that crisp indentation that keeps your holes exactly where they belong.
What You’re Getting
- Sharp 3/16-inch point that creates clean, precise indentations in steel and aluminum
- Black oxide finish that resists corrosion and stands up to shop conditions
- 5-inch length provides good reach while keeping your fingers away from the work
- 3/8-inch body diameter gives you solid grip and control for accurate placement
- Hardened steel construction that won’t mushroom or chip under hammer blows
Built for Real Farm Work
Whether you’re building custom brackets for your sprayer, marking holes for implement attachments, or doing general metalwork around the shop, this punch handles it all. It’s the same type of tool you’ll find in any serious fabrication shop—built to mark everything from thin sheet metal to heavy plate steel with equal precision.
Made to Last
The Mayhew brand has been making quality punches for decades, and this one shows why. The hardened steel point stays sharp through thousands of uses, while the black oxide coating keeps rust at bay even in damp shop conditions.
Good to Know
Hold the punch at a slight angle and give it a solid tap with a ball-peen hammer—you don’t need to beat on it. The goal is a clean dimple that’s just deep enough to guide your drill bit. Keep the point sharp by storing it in a protective tube or block of foam when not in use.
